Abstract: | Narrow photoluminescence peaks with a full-width at half-maximum of 14–20 nm are obtained from porous silicon microcavities (PSM) fabricated by the electrochemical etching of a Si multilayer grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The microcavity structure contains an active porous silicon layer sandwiched between two distributed porous silicon Bragg reflectors; the latter were fabricated by etching a Si multilayer doped alternatively with high and low boron concentrations. The structural and optical properties of the PSMs are characterised by scanning electron microscopy and photoluminescence (PL). The wavelength of the narrow PL peaks could be tuned in the range of 700–810 nm by altering the optical constants. |
